Do you know which section of trail it was and which side of the creek? I run the east side exclusively.

It was on South side of Legacy where the creek comes under the road. I guess that would be the east side of the creek.

Good job reading something into a post that was not there. Sheesh... now I know How Trump feels when the leftists do it to him.

Seems pretty self-evident to me. But that's OK, the sky was revealed as green this morning. Sheesh.

"I think she made a horrible decision going for a jog all alone at that time of the morning. They think the same guy is the one who broke into a home in that neighborhood the same morning. The home had three men in it and they hid like cowards in a bedroom. Had they stopped this guy with a well placed shot, this poor lady would still be alive. Surely they could have come up with some type of weapon to beat the guy down with."

You may be a leftist if you spend your time trying to read things into everything someone else says....sheesh. It is quite common on this forum to discuss how situations could be changed by different actions among those involved. It has nothing to do with the leftist habit of assigning blame. that should clear up your concerns. Blame is not in my vocabulary. But then again i am conservative.

Meanwhile... We just had a drive by shooting in Plano this morning! It has not made the news yet so details pending. Early reports are that noone was injured. Shots fired into someones home.

Bob Woodruff is over on the other side of Town(East Plano). I use to live by that park/trail system. It is a very nice park. Just a heads up. A couple days ago my daughter sent me a Police Blotter that said there had been at least two armed robberies in East Plano. I don't know where exactly but wanted to alert you in case you had not heard yet. I grew up in Plano and it use to be a safe place to live. It seems nowhere is safe any more. Very distressing to say the least. I have noticed a sizable increase in the homeless population around down. I guess the cops are just letting them sleep where ever they want. Many of these people are the source for the increased crime around Plano.

Chisholm trail runs from 75 SB and 15th street northwest to Tracy Road and Legacy, maybe more than a few blocks but definitely too close for comfort and in no way detracts from this family's tragedy. All the more reason to carry during walks.

I never said it "detracts" from this families tragedy. I am not sure where you got that out of me saying Bob Woodruff park is on the other side of town. I actually just thought maybe you misunderstood where this happened when you said it was just a few blocks from where you live.

Exactly! What the HECK is going on? We are getting too many violent crimes.

Legacy runs right behind my home. This happened about three lights down from me. I think she made a horrible decision going for a jog all alone at that time of the morning. They think the same guy is the one who broke into a home in that neighborhood the same morning. The home had three men in it and they hid like cowards in a bedroom. Had they stopped this guy with a well placed shot, this poor lady would still be alive. Surely they could have come up with some type of weapon to beat the guy down with. He did have a knife and I am sure they suddenly thought about buying a firearm. The next Monday we were working on a home in that neighborhood. We normally see single women walkers and joggers all over it early in AM. Not now. One group of Ladies was 5 strong. We saw nobody walking/jogging alone. This kind of thing is just heart breaking.
